Are you a fan? Do you like their music (Especially now that they have reunited after 40 years!)
I've never been a big ABBA fan and I'm sure when I was young I saw it as "Old pesron's music", but certainly as I've grown older I've come to appreciate them alot. Mamma Mia, Dancing queen, their just hits! Through older eyes I can certainly appreciate why they got bit back in the day and enjoy these dongs a lot as I've got older.
So what do you think about them/and their reunion?

I have yet to hear their new album but it's on my To Do List. I used to like them when I was a kid but it was hard for me to learn the lyrics to some of them. Now that I have Google it's fun to see how I got some of the words wrong.

Oh I'm always doing that! When I was a kid with the song "There Must Be An Angel (Playing With My Heart)" by the Eutrythmics, there was a line that goes:
"No one on earth could feel like this I'm thrown and overblown with bliss"
Now in my head, I always heard the last part as "I'm overgrown with fleas" and to this day I still hear that, I can't not un-hear it!
Anyway, I was going to post that I hadn't listened to it either but I did try it on Friday. I work in a low-level, mediocre pay maintence job, and on my own so sometimes I blas spotify. I liked the new album. The first song "I still have faith in you" immidiatly gave me "Winner takes it all" vibes and overall the whole album just has that classic ABBA feel and sound to it still!
My only critisism is that the music could sound dated, of all the songs there's maybe one that feels like a hit. So by keeping the style it "could" make it feel dated. Keep in mind I've only listened to it once however. I could be wrong. I'll definetly give it another listen when I can though.
